Let’s start the morning with some girlie action.

Birkenstocks are WAY in style this summer. The standard German tourist version — Birkenstock Unisex Arizona Sandal — is getting a lot of attention. But I’m a fan of this t-strap model — Birkenstock Gizeh Birko-Flor Sandal in toffee. I get a new pair every two years.

I’m reading The Goldfinch: A Novel (Pulitzer Prize for Fiction).

Do you replace your running shoes every six months? You probably should. Here’s my latest pair — Saucony Women’s Omni 12 Running Shoe.
